The Centre on Wednesday revoked President's Rule from Uttarakhand after Chief Minister Harish Rawat proved his majority on the floor of the House.
The Congress won by a margin of 33-28 in the floor test on Tuesday.
With nine Congress rebels barred from voting, the strength of the 71-member assembly was 62. Sources said 28 MLAs voted for the BJP.
Yesterday, Rawat in a very optimistic note had said the 'dark clouds' over Uttarakhand would finally drift away through the Supreme Court's formal announcement.
Rawat would chair a cabinet meeting on Thursday morning at the Uttarakhand secretariat.
Victory resounded for the Congress Party in the decisive Uttarakhand floor test as the Supreme Court earlier today announced the grand old party now has the majority in the state assembly.
The court said no irregularities were found in the voting. The result of the trust vote was handed over to the Supreme Court in a sealed cover earlier today along with video recording of the proceedings in the state assembly.
